Bad news for women in flannel shirts.
There are other reasons to buy a Subaru.
For example, we have a Forester, which is a good car, handles great and holds all our camping equipment and our dogs (Akita and boxer/whippet - no golden retrievers allowed here).
One of the main reasons we got it, however, is that Mrs. VanShuyten’s brother works for a supplier to Fuji Heavy Industry, which makes Subaru. Ask any Japanese FReeper about family purchase pressure.
The other reason is that we got a great deal with Obama’s Cash-for-Clunkers program. Thank you US taxpayers!
Got me on #2! LOL!
Oh no you didn’t...
As a Minnesotan, I just can't...stop...laughing.
It was 35 degrees this morning.
*I* (conceived, born, and continuing 100% MALE) am wearing a flannel shirt...
I know that's the reputation Subarus have in the lower 48 (our lesbian neighbors when we lived in VA Beach had one), but here in AK they are pretty popular cars with everyone for their winter driving characteristics.
